EDITORS COMMENTS
**The Obscene Kiss: A Forbidden Union** In this provocative woodcut print from 1608, Francesco Maria Guazzo's "Bilder-Lexicon Kulturgeschichte" captures a shocking scene of witches kissing the devil's anus. This enigmatic image has been shrouded in mystery for centuries, leaving art historians and enthusiasts alike to ponder its true meaning. Dating back to the early 17th century, this rare print is a testament to the dark and mystical world of witchcraft during Europe's Renaissance era. The illustration depicts three witches gathered around Satan's posterior, their lips pressed against his anus in an act that defies explanation. While some may view this image as nothing more than a crude representation of medieval superstition, others might see it as a commentary on the power dynamics between humans and supernatural forces. Whatever its intended meaning, "Witches Kissing the Devil's Anus" remains a fascinating artifact from a time when magic was real and fear reigned supreme. **Credit:** Bridgeman Images / Fine Art Finder
